I do, I believe you would.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you live in an area that has over-the-air signals, you can get basic channel via HD with just an antenna. I happen to live in a very mountainous region and cannot get over-the-air signals so it is not possible for me. Check out this CNET article (it's from 2011 but it gives you the basics) http://howto.cnet.com/how-to-get-free-hdtv/ I have had some friends tell me that the basic channels are actually better quality over-the-air because unlike cable and satellite, it is uncompressed HD. All-in-all nice for not costing anything monthly! Best Buy sells the antennas - definitiely worth a look because a one-time cost versus monthly cable bill is an investment worth making in my opinion. If I lived in an area that could get the signal I'd do it!
